You need to isolate x.
71 - 5x = 9x - 13
Add 13 to both sides.
84 - 5x = 9x
Add 5x to both sides.
84 = 14x
Divide both sides by 14.
6 = x
<h3>The answer is x = 6.</h3>
I believe the answer is A) Not possible not sure
Is there a graph maybe post a picture??
Step-by-step explanation:
Any coordinates in the shaded area are solutions. Any coordinates on the line are not a solution due to it being dashed. Anything in the non-shaded area is also not a solution. You can always check if you are right by plugging in the numbers.
Example: (1, -2)
-2 < 0.5(1) + 2
-2 < 0.5 + 2
-2 < 2.5
True, -2 is less than 2.5.
Another Example: (-2, 1)
1 < 0.5(-2) + 2
1 < -1 + 2
1 < 1
False, 1 is not less than itself.
6.5 liters per 100 km travelled. 30% of 5 is 1.5, so adding this to the original amount results in 6.5
